T-Rob a no.5 overall draft pick is already on his 3rd team. Bet he didn't see that coming 8o.

No point of arguing. Nobody taking Miami's crown until two of the big three go down.

considering they're a miraculous ray allen 3 to keep them in it, can't see how you'd say no one's dethroning miami. i'd give indy and chicago both a good shot in the east
 
While we're on the subjet of the Clippers (which seems to be every day now) when are we going to talk about Doc Rivers. Never has he coached a team that is this deep. Theres a legit 10 man rotation going on there. So many people deserve minutes, who probably wont get enough. Also will he get Blake and Jordan to play defense, because as it stands now, Mullins is their toughest big. If they lose early which I think they win what does that say about him?

This is what I worried about when he entered the league. He couldn't just bully his way to the basket like he could at Kansas. He might have to re-invent himself as a rebounder that scores via hustle and garbage baskets. He's got an inconsistent jump shot, can't finish around the basket and turns the ball over too much to be a primary or secondary option.
 
^are allen3xis and big j still fans of the knicks or are they new miami heat fans? (shout out oasis...good transition)

questions?

things that make you go hmmmm....

NBA to Live Stream Local Games Online


Great news, Internet people! According to Sports Business Daily, the NBA is set to become the first major pro sports league in the U.S. to (legally) stream local games live online: “The league is finalizing TV Everywhere deals with Fox Sports Media Group and NBC Sports Group, the country’s two biggest owners of regional sports networks. Other RSNs, such as Root Sports, MSG, Time Warner Cable Sports, and Altitude Sports and Entertainment, are expected to offer live in-market streaming later this season. The agreements break a six-year logjam that prevented viewers from watching their hometown teams on their computers or handsets locally. The frustrating negotiations also caused industry executives to question the viability of such a service, even as national TV channels were profiting from their own streaming services. Now, the financial viability of live local streams will be tested, starting soon after the NBA opens its season later this month. The deals will allow people who subscribe to a distributor that carries Fox Sports Net or Comcast SportsNet to log in and watch their local teams’ games via broadband or mobile. Fox has deals with 16 NBA teams; Comcast has deals with eight teams. MLB and the NHL have yet to cut deals that allow for live in-market streaming. ‘It is not going to roll out at one time for everyone,’ said Bill Koenig, executive vice president of business affairs and general counsel for the NBA. ‘My sense is that Fox, from a technical standpoint, is further along. The good news is that I think it will happen in a significant way this year.’ The streaming deals run through the 2015-16 season, ending at the same time as the NBA’s linear TV deals.”
 
Chi better than Indy at every position?

Rose > Hill
Butler > Lance
Deng Hill
Butler > Lance
Deng = George
Boozer Hibbert

Kirk, Dunleavy, Taj = Watson, Granger, Scola

I see the Bulls as slightly better offensively and much better defensively. Their #1 and #2 options are also much better.

We'll be fine. We had Vinny ******g del Negro at the helm when we got to the first and 2nd rounds.

We now have a proven winner who has instituted a culture change (telling CP3 he aint ****, covering the Lakers banners, etc) and thats just the stuff we've heard about. Gotta think that there's a different vibe in the locker room now with Doc running things.

Paul George is certainly better than Deng....and they're much better defensively than the best defensive team in the NBA last year?

You'll be able to stream your local team even if you're in the region (read: watch the Kings online even in Sac). However it sounds like it'll be through your cable provider, not NBA League Pass Broadband.
